Building on from a mapping programme the Islamic Art & Material Culture Subject Specialist Network (SSN). completed
last year, the SSN are offering a specialist support scheme
aims to provide regional museums with a toolkit to help them unlock the
potential of their collections of Islamic Art and Material Culture and use them
to engage with new and diverse audiences. It will provide flexible, specialist
and practical support through a scalable programme that can be tailored to the
needs of the individual institutions. At least one tangible output, such as a
new display, knowledge sharing or outreach event should result from that
specialist support.
Details about the Specialist
Support Scheme and how to apply can be found via the SSN website
The deadline has been extended to receive applications for our Specialist Support Scheme. The deadline
is 5pm on Friday 18th September, 2015.
